 I've got some sloppy shift linkage on the Ambo. Essentially, the pins
and holes have wallered out with time and use

I took the pin down to the hardware store and found two thin brass
sleeves that slipped over them real tight, then cut to lenght, just shy
of the cotter pin hole.
I believe I used a 3/8 drill bit to enlargen the holes to push the pin
w/brass insert thru. Tight as Dick's hat band!

Sound's like that Florida salt air is playing havoc on the machinery?
